INTRODUCTION
WHAT IS BITCOIN:
Is a new currency that was created in 2009 by an unknown person using the alias of Satoshi Nakamoto. Transactions are made directly without the need of a bank. There are not transaction fees and no need to give your real name. Some comers started to accept this coin. This coin has the characteristics of being easy and cheap for international payments because it isn’t tied to any country or subject to regulation. This coin is often described as the first decentralized digital currency. Bitcoins have three useful qualities in a currency, according to the Economist in January 2015: they are "hard to earn, limited in supply and easy to verify”.
Bitcoin is a consensus network that enables a new payment system and a

government. A natural way to argue that Bitcoin will grow is to identify some of its major advantages. According to Andreesen (2014); first, the reduction in certain transaction costs that Bitcoin could bring about. A major example is the case of international remittance: “Every day, hundreds of millions of low-income people go to work in hard jobs in foreign countries to make money to send back to their families in their home countries (over $400 billion annually). Every day, banks and payment companies extract mind-boggling fees, up to 10% to send this money. Switching to Bitcoin, which charges no or very few feed, for these remittance payment will therefore raise the quality of life of migrant workers and their families significantly.” He says, Bitcoin can be a powerful force “to bring much larger number of people around the world into the modern economic system” and thereby “ can be powerful catalyst to extend the benefits of the modern economic system to virtually everyone on the …show more content…
Every day, more businesses accept bitcoins because they want the advantages of doing so, but the list remains small and still needs to grow in order to benefit from network effects.
• Volatility - The total value of bitcoins in circulation and the number of businesses using Bitcoin are still very small compared to what they could be. Therefore, relatively small events, trades, or business activities can significantly affect the price. In theory, this volatility will decrease as Bitcoin markets and the technology matures. Never before has the world seen a start-up currency, so it is truly difficult (and exciting) to imagine how it will play out.
• Ongoing development - Bitcoin software is still in beta with many incomplete features in active development. New tools, features, and services are being developed to make Bitcoin more secure and accessible to the masses. Some of these are still not ready for everyone. Most Bitcoin businesses are new and still offer no
Money has been used for a long time. It is present in daily actions such as buying or selling products, paying or receiving for services and it is also used to store of value. In the past money was not so efficient because private banks were allowed to print their own money, in consequence was hard to know the real value of the money and if the bank had gold or silver to support the money they were printing. As a result inflation was caused, in addition to inflation the national debt was very high in consequence of War of 1812. Americans saw a need for change.
One of biggest roadblock that companies have to face is to invest a lot of money on implementing a software system and have employees ignore it and keep trying to do the task in their own way. This the reason why the provider that you choose for implementing your software have to be a natural fit for the organization. If the owners and employees have the same passion and understanding of the product that they would implement the result would be a success (Phillips, 2016).
The quality is being maintained, and new features and services are continually being added in order to further expand their brand and company. They promote to a wide audience, and gain community and corporate support which allows them to continue to grow and expand (QuickMBA,
The fear of loss of job opportunities because of a higher rate of new incoming immigrants has lead to people indulge in vile behaviors to protect one’s personal welfare, releasing hysteria among the people. Many citizens with the same heritage as many immigrants that come to this country refuse to even accept their own people, for they are afraid that these might take away their economic stability. This fear of losing your job is one very predominant in modern society, because people are worried of how their financial status will drop. People worry about being financially stable because money plays a very important role in enabling humans to fulfill their basic and selfish needs. It can be seen how many of these people who have already lost their jobs will do anything to obtain a new one.
Gold was often a primary currency but over time it began to become expensive and laborious to continually mine. The introduction of silver as a major form of currency caused ripples of effects in many aspects of society and practically replaced gold in importance. Most notably effected were nations' economies (improvement of economies, loss of revenue) and societies (East actively seeking silver) but the effects on economy were often more influential because flourishing economies often brought new or expanded power for nations. (467,23,158) One of the largest shifts in global economy is that you see a huge increase in many countries imports and exports leading to more money and better financial standings.
Money could be the most important thing that makes a nation really powerful and the US is an excellent example of how important is to have a good economy. Like Americans and other legal people, undocumented people help to hold and increase the U.S. economy in a positive way. [4] Cesar Maximiliano Estrada, Senior Managing Director and Head of Private Equity, in his article “How Immigrants Positively Affect the Business Community and the U.S. Economy” explains that immigrants have always been vital to the U.S. economy. In 2013, for example, immigrants added $1.6 trillion to total U.S. gross domestic product, or GDP. Economists have found that immigrants complement native-born workers and increase the standard of living for all Americans.
Illegal immigrants that are given a tax ID number or temporary residency will help the countries’ economy by eliminating business owners from hiring illegal immigrants which causes them to pay the taxes they wouldn’t be paying if they were hiring them
The penny, serving as the United States' lowest denomination, should not be abolished. Pennies are often ignored, or regarded as inconsequential in the grand scheme of life. However, considering the ties between the public's perception of currency and their confidence in the American economic system, it is clear that the penny is indispensable. It is both a vital part of economic transactions and a reminder of American history. The penny represents the metaphorical golden age of the United States.

Living in a potent economic country, immigrants like us have found more chances of employment from low skilled level to professional level with increased salary. We can get better pay compared to what we can get in our country. The dollar value is also much higher and more stable than many other countries’ currency which gives us a chance to support relatives still residing back in our native land. Finally, we come to the United States because we have our families already residing here and we desire to be reunited with them.
Technology could help people adapt in ways that could help them change the way they live and think. Although, it could negatively affect the way people process information through the internet such as having problems with literacy and distractions. In “Smarter than You Think”, Clive Thompson claims that technology can help humans be smarter. Technology such as computers to mentally challenge themselves, so they can improve. Thompson talks about how playing a computer in any sort of game like chess could be a game changer for humans to help them improve their performance and overcome their mistakes.
The evidence from Eastern European economics proves that they receive greatest benefit while comparing to Asia and Americas. Author also add that African countries can’t take benefits and do not have statistically significant impact of remittance on economic
